Karl Strauss Big Barrel Double IPA 22fl oz

When we kicked off this series of intense hoppy beers, we wanted to go big. Imported New Zealand Nelson Sauvin hops provide a vibrant tropical aroma that raises eyebrows and expectations. Agressive amounts of Warrior and Ahtanum hops produce an assertive bitterness that stands out against a firm malt backbone. Balanced even at 90 IBUs Big Barrel leaves a considerable first impression that serves as a prelude of things to come.
